Hadith on Parents: Allah forbids disobedience to mothers

Al-Mughirah ibn Sha’bah reported: The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “Verily, Allah has forbidden you from disobeying your mothers, withholding charity, demanding from others, and burying your daughters alive. Allah disapproves that you spread talebearing and gossip, ask many unnecessary questions, and waste your wealth.”
